    New Golf GTi Advert...

    Is quailty. Very clever.

    The Singing in the Rain one; http://www.visit4info.com/details.cfm?adid=20205

    An advert that isn't crap, annoying or just dull. Amazing!

    Nice to know there are some advertising bods out there with a bit of talent still.

    Sorry Vaul, gotta disagree with you. It's poor, very poor. The visual quality is pants, the tune is pants, and it took me about three watches to discover what the message of the advert was (although to be fair that was me being stupid, perhaps).
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Kez; u sux.

    Its the nizzle, that advert is. A cut above the likes of your average 3 advert, with some kid eating a cherry, or a big jellyfish.

    Weird for the sake of weird.

    Nah sorry. The Citroen advert - now THAT'S cool, but the golf one is poor. I preferred the old one where they timeshifted the designers and the car and their clothing etc.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    for once I'd have to say vaul is correct
    it is a very cool ad.

    but the citroen one is also cool...each in their own unique way. the same way in fact vaul is so special - um, unique...

    I agree with Kez in that it's poorly executed, they just haven't nailed the CGI properly. Nice idea but they needed to spend more time polishing it. Citroen ad bodes well for Transformers live action movie

    I'm always correct, people just realise this to varying degrees.

    Oh and for the insult - Your sig is too tall.

    Downloaded the vid a few days ago in work, and i got the meaning of the ad even tho i had no sound!

    The guy dances like me after a few stellas! It must have been cardiff CCTV footage of me and they superimposed the face on. Grrrr I WANT MY ROYALTIES!!!!!

    Great advert, kez, az, they sell braincells on ebay, might be a good idea to create an account

    Yes I agree too... i'm still a fan of the Citroen one, but the new golf one was cool...

    and i think the original music has been very nciely updated... I'm a big fan of that kinda stuff.

    It's very well pieced together, i just hope that kollaboration dude gets his fair share! (can recognise those moves from anywhere!)

    Not a bad advert better than some car adds (Vauxhall) still the winner imho is the Honda Cog advert.

    The Golf advert is so good I was tempted to go and buy one, even my wife likes the advert, but not cars.
